Francisco Espregueira
Reggie Dokes has been an influential figure in the Atlanta house and techno scene for over two decades, and he continues to impress with his latest release, Detroit's Linwood EP via Fluid Funk. The three-track record is a fresh take on deep house with mellow, sun-streaked island vibrations, and multi-instrumental boogie textures. Dokes’ unique style blends a variety of influences, resulting in a vibrant musical trip.
The lead single, "Detroit's Linwood", is a perfect blend of piano house and Latin-style swing, featuring Balearic guitar chords and Caribbean steelpan folk, layered over a rhythmically complex beat. The EP also includes the playful "Water and Stone", which combines Afro-tribalism with Eastern sensibilities, and the upbeat "Show Me", a pop-infused house track with a P-funk twist. Dokes showcases his versatility and skill in this release, proving once again why he is a top name in the genre. Detroit’s Linwood EP is available on Bandcamp - don't miss out on this latest release from one of Atlanta's finest musical talents.
